Uniform Approximation to the Solution of a Singularly Perturbed Boundary Value Problem with an Initial Jump

Abstract

In this study, a third-order linear integro-differential equation with a small parameter at two higher derivatives was considered. An asymptotic expansion of the solution to the boundary value problem for the considered equation is constructed by considering the phenomenon of an initial jump of the second degree zeroth order on the left end of a given segment. The asymptotics of the solution has been sought in the form of a sum of the regular part and the part of the boundary layer. The terms of the regular part are defined as solutions of integro-differential boundary value problems, in which the equations and boundary conditions contain additional terms, called the initial jumps of the integral terms and solutions. Boundary layer terms are defined as solutions of third-order differential equations with initial conditions. A theorem on the existence, uniqueness, and asymptotic representation of a solution is presented along with an asymptotic estimate of the remainder term of the asymptotics. The purpose of this study is to construct a uniform asymptotic approximation to the solution to the original boundary value problem over the entire considered segment.
